GPS which one?

OK so I bought a gps not long ago and yes it might be able to get me out of the woods if I were trapped but I never go to the woods...the speedo only shows how fast I am going, not how fast I went...So I need a bare bones GPS that will tell me my top speed for the day....which one should I get.....I especially want CHEAP....
